Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that showcases the concept of "science" through a stylized representation of the DNA double helix on the copper-nickel center, surrounded by a brass ring with a pattern of atoms and molecules. The use of bimetallic material adds an extra layer of depth and visual interest to the design, making it a standout piece in any coin collection.
